ellauri063.html on line 41: Tony Blair oversaw British interventions in Kosovo (1999) and Sierra Leone (2000), which were generally perceived as successful. During the War on Terror, he supported the foreign policy of the George W. Bush administration and ensured that the British Armed Forces participated in the War in Afghanistan from 2001 and, more controversially, the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Blair argued that the Saddam Hussein regime possessed an active weapons of mass destruction (WMD) program, but no stockpiles of WMDs or an active WMD program were ever found in Iraq. The Iraq War became increasingly unpopular among the British public, and he was criticised by opponents and (in 2016) the Iraq Inquiry for waging an unjustified and unnecessary invasion. He was in office when the 7/7 bombings took place (2005) and introduced a range of anti-terror legislation. His legacy remains controversial, not least because of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars.

Galen recommends conservative management of piles (laxatives, ointments, leeches) and regards bleeding as therapeutic. Also describes, however, use of a tight thread to induce sloughing of hemorrhoids.

For as beautiful as their song is, barn swallows also bring a lot of less attractive features when they move into your property. The early-morning noise and piles of droppings and feathers they create are reason enough to want these birds gone. As an Amazon Associate, this site earns from qualifying purchases.

There are stones in the boys’ piles and some others on the ground. Mrs. Delacroix selects a large stone she can barely lift. “Hurry up,” she says to Mrs. Dunbar beside her. Mrs. Dunbar gasps for breath and says that she can’t run. Go ahead, she urges, “I’ll catch up.”
ellauri370.html on line 270: Egyptiin jäi miljoonittain juutalaisia Monsieur Mossen porukoiden lähtiessä kultineen "luvattuun" maahan. Assyrialainen Tiglatpilsneri kuskasi juudalaiset vankilaan 700-luvulla eKr, eivätkä he koskaan palanneet. No jotkut pojanpojat palasivat, ei se vankeus kestänyt kauempaa kuin Neuvostoliitto. Tiglatpileser III (oik. Pulu) oli Assyrian kuningas vuosina 745–727 eaa. Hän oli luultavasti vallananastaja, joka kuulostaakseen uskottavammalta otti vanhan kuuluisan hallitsijanimen. Tiglatpileser aloitti Assyrian valtapiirin laajentamisen. Hänestä voidaan katsoa alkaneen Assyrian toisen suurvaltakauden. Pian valtaannousunsa jälkeen hän valloitti Urartun (nykyisessä Armeniassa). Lisäksi hän kävi sotaa Juudaa vastaan, josta on maininta Aikakirjoissa. Hän myös alisti Babylonian Assyrian vallan alle. Tiglatpileser valtasi 736 eaa. Meedian ja laajensi valtakuntansa nykyiseen Iraniin saakka. Assyria käsitti tuolloin koko Mesopotamian ja Levantin. Valtakunta ulottui Persianlahdelta, Iraniin ja Välimerelle. Kuningas Nabonassarin kuoleman jälkeen Babylonissa syttyi 729 eKr. kapina. Kuningas oli ollut luotettava vasalli, ja Tiglatpileser joutui kukistamaan kapinan. Hän myös teloitti usurpaattorin ja kruunautti itsensä Babylonian kuninkaaksi nimellä Pulu. Tiglatpileserin nuorempi poika Sargon II anasti vallan 722 eaa. Sargon ei juurikaan laajentanut Assyriaa, mutta hän kehitti valtakunnan taloutta ja siirsi väestöä tuottavuuden kehittämiseksi.
xxx/ellauri229.html on line 539: The period of private initiative in body building lasted three quarters of a century. At first there was much enjoyment taken in the newly won freedom of automorphosis, once again the young people led the way, the men with their gambrel thills and timbrels, the women with their pettifores, but before long a generation gap developed, and demonstrations-under the banner of asceticism-followed. The sons condemned their fathers for being interested only in making a living, for having a passive, often consumerist attitude towards the body, for their shallow hedonism, their vulgar pursuit of pleasure, and in order to disassociate themselves they assumed shapes deliberately hideous, uncomfortable beyond belief, downright nightmarish (the antleroons, wampdoodles). Showing their contempt for all things utilitarian, they set eyes in their armpits, and one group of young biotic activists made use of innumerable sound organs, specially grown (electric guitars, glottiphones, hawk pipes, knuckelodeons, thumbolas). They arranged mass concerts, in which the soloists-called hoot-howls-would whip up the crowd into a frenzy of convulsive percussion. Then came the fashion - the mania, rather - for long penises, which in caliber and strength of grip underwent escalation according to the typically adolescent, swaggering principle of "You haven´t seen anything yet!" And, since no one could lift those piles of coils by himself, so called processionals were attached, caudalettes, a self-perambulating receptacle that grew out of the small of the back and carried, on two strong shanks, the weight of the testicles after their owner. In the textbook I found illustrations depicting men of fashion, behind whom walked testicle-bearing processionals on parade; but this was already the decline of the protest movement, or more precisely its complete bankruptcy, because it had failed to pursue any goals of its own, being solely a rebellious reaction against the orgiastic baroque of the age. LEM ei paljon perustanut sodanjälkeisestä 60-luvun sukupolvesta, eikä hipeistä. No en minäkään.
